Amazon S3 Boto

Hi there,

I am a total beginner to programming and Django so I'd appreciate help
that beginner can get his head round!

I was following a tutorial to show how to upload images to an Amazon
S3 account with the Boto library but I think it is for an older
version of Django (I'm on 1.1.2 and Python 2.65) and something has
changed. I get an error:
Exception Type: TypeError
Exception Value: 'InMemoryUploadedFile' object is unsubscriptable

My code is:

Models.py

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django import forms
from datetime import datetime

class PhotoUrl(models.Model):
url = models.CharField(max_length=128)
uploaded = models.DateTimeField()

def save(self):
self.uploaded = datetime.now()
models.Model.save(self)

views.py
import mimetypes
from django.http import HttpResponseRedirect
from django.shortcuts import render_to_response
from django.core.urlresolvers import reverse
from django import forms
from django.conf import settings
from boto.s3.connection import S3Connection
from boto.s3.key import Key

def awsdemo(request):
def store_in_s3(filename, content):
conn = S3Connection(settings.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
settings.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY)
b = conn.create_bucket('almacmillan-hark')
mime = mimetypes.guess_type(filename)[0]
k = Key(b)
k.key = filename
k.set_metadata("Content-Type", mime)
k.set_contents_from_strong(content)
k.set_acl("public-read")

photos = PhotoUrl.objects.all().order_by("-uploaded")
if not request.method == "POST":
f = UploadForm()
return render_to_response('awsdemo.html', {'form':f,
'photos':photos})

f = UploadForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if not f.is_valid():
return render_to_response('awsdemo.html', {'form':f,
'photos':photos})

file = request.FILES['file']
filename = file.name
content = file['content']
store_in_s3(filename, content)
p = PhotoUrl(url="http://almacmillan-hark.s3.amazonaws.com/" +
filename)
p.save()
photos = PhotoUrl.objects.all().order_by("-uploaded")
return render_to_response('awsdemo.html', {'form':f,
'photos':photos})

urls.py

(r'^awsdemo/$', 'harkproject.s3app.views.awsdemo'),

awsdemo.html

<div class="form">
<strong>{{form.file.label}}</strong>
<form method="POST" action ="." enctype="multipart/form-data">
{{form.file}}<br/>
<input type="submit" value="Upload">
</form>
</div>

I'd really appreciate help. I hope I have provided enough code.

Kind regards
AL
